MR 3001: a Magnetic Heating Stirrer Designed for Medical Precision
The Heidolph MR 3001 is a heated magnetic stirrer that meets the demanding standards of medical, pharmaceutical and clinical research laboratories. It combines two essential functions in a single compact device: homogeneous magnetic stirring of solutions and controlled heating of media. This dual functionality allows you to prepare and maintain stable solutions, dissolve active substances or carry out reactions that require constant monitoring. The heating plate made of Silumin, an aluminium alloy known for its thermal conductivity, ensures uniform heat distribution across the entire surface, guaranteeing reliable results in even the most sensitive medical protocols.
Precise Control of Temperature and Stirring Speed
The performance of the MR 3001 is based on its ability to offer simple and precise control of the parameters essential for laboratory work. The temperature range of the plate extends from 0 to 300 °C, allowing both aqueous solutions and more complex samples to be heated. The effective temperature of the medium can be maintained up to 250°C, covering a wide range of medical applications. The temperature is regulated by a robust capillary system, combined with an integrated bimetallic thermal cut-out, which activates at 370°C to protect the device and prevent any risk of overheating. On the stirring side, the MR 3001 is equipped with a reliable capacitor motor, controlled by an electronic speed control. The user can adjust the stirring speed from 100 to 1250 rpm, allowing both low-viscosity solutions and denser preparations to be processed. This range makes the device versatile and particularly suitable for medical environments where reproducibility of experimental conditions is essential.
Safety, Durability and Ergonomics for Everyday Medical Use
The MR 3001 has been designed to offer optimum safety during daily use. Its housing is encapsulated and covered with a polyamide coating, while its front is protected by a polyester panel resistant to chemicals commonly used in laboratories. This construction ensures a long service life, even when regularly exposed to harsh conditions. Compact and lightweight, weighing only 3 kg and measuring 240 × 155 × 120 mm, it fits easily on a medical workbench, even in confined spaces. Its simple start-up, efficient heat dissipation system and overheating protection guarantee reliable operation on a daily basis. The device requires no special maintenance, which is a major advantage for laboratories wishing to focus on their core activities without interruption.
